Greyed Out - Compare & Merge Workbooks Function
Excel 2003 on XP.
Regardless of how I try to get this to work, ie opening different files in different sequences, this function is never available. I have followed the Help on Merge Workbooks but it is still greyed out. Any ideas anyone. Many thanks DeanH

Re: Greyed Out - Compare & Merge Workbooks Function
Are they shared?

the same folder. I have never seen this function NOT greyed out.

Re: Greyed Out - Compare & Merge Workbooks Function
The compare and merge workbooks is only available when the workbook is shared
under Tools>Share Workbook. Maybe you were thinking of Window>Compare side by side with when you have two workbooks open.
